Cantor Offers In-Play Bets in Vegas

Sports betting may have fizzled in Delaware, but in Nevada the time has come to place your bets. Las Vegas sports books have begun offering Cantor Gaming’s in-play betting on NFL and NCAA games this month, just in time for football season.

In-play or in-running bets allow bettors to place bets during the game, which Cantor Gaming President and CEO Lee Amaitis said makes the action more exciting.

“In-running is particularly well-suited for football because of the popularity of the game and the huge number of football fans interested in sports betting,” Amaitis said. “With in-running, customers can place bets during the game, so fans can have a stake in the action all the way through the event.”

Cantor began offering in-running bets on NFL and NCAA games on September 10 at the Venetian, Palazzo and M Resort.
